Hmm, I got these for roots:
0.7937053103356799
0.026855090968934903 +i* 1.6611004538114105
0.026855090968934903 -i* 1.6611004538114105
-6.84741549227355
Answer is C.
Multiply the numerator and denominate by 3 - √5
Hope it helps.
First, let's convert the givens to decimals to make calculations easier:
2 (3/4) = 2.75
9(5/8) = 9.625
We are given that:
Josie can hike 2.75 miles in one hour.
To know the time that Josie would take to hike 9.625 miles, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
2.75 miles ..........> 1 hour
9.625 miles .............> ?? hours
Time = (9.625*1) / (2.75) = 3.5 hours
<span>Complementary angles by definition sum up to 90 degrees.
Let x = measure of angle2.
It's given that angle1 = x + 54
Since complementary, we know (x+54)+x = 90
2x+54=90
2x=36
x=18.
So angle2 measures 18 degrees and angle1 is 18 degrees+54 degrees, or 72 degrees. 72+18 = 90 as expected for complementary angles.</span>
